1.4 Emacs support

MDK includes extensive support for Emacs. Upon installation, all
the elisp code is installed in PREFIX/share/mdk, where
PREFIX stands for your installation root directory (e.g.
/usr/local). You can copy the elisp files to a directory that
is in your load-path, or you can add the above directory to it.
Assuming that the installing prefix is /usr/local,
you can do it by adding to your .emacs file the following line:

(setq load-path (cons "/usr/local/share/mdk" load-path))

MIXAL programs can be written using Emacs and the elisp program
share/mdk/mixal-mode.el, contributed by Pieter E. J. Pareit. It
provides font locking, interactive help, compiling assistance and
invocation of the MIX virtual machine via a new major mode
called mixal-mode. To start mixal-mode automatically
whenever you edit a MIXAL source file, add the following lines
to your .emacs file:

In addition, mixvm can be run within an Emacs GUD
buffer using the elisp program share/mdk/mixvm.el, contributed
by Philip E. King. mixvm.el provides an interface between
MDK’s mixvm and Emacs, via GUD. Place this file
in your load-path, optionally adding the following line to your
.emacs file:
